1. Problem Description

The problem is to estimate the probability that the next tee shot lands on the green, based on the data provided in the bar graph. The bar graph shows the number of shots that landed in different locations: Green, Water, Bunker, Fairway, and Rough.

2. Solution Steps

First, we need to determine the number of shots that landed in each location based on the bar graph:
- Green: 4 shots
- Water: 5 shots
- Bunker: 7 shots
- Fairway: 3 shots
- Rough: 5 shots
Next, calculate the total number of shots.
Total number of shots = 4 (Green) + 5 (Water) + 7 (Bunker) + 3 (Fairway) + 5 (Rough) = 24 shots
Now, we want to find the probability of the next shot landing on the green. This is calculated as the number of shots that landed on the green divided by the total number of shots.
P(Green)=Number of shots on GreenTotal number of shotsP(\text{Green}) = \frac{\text{Number of shots on Green}}{\text{Total number of shots}}
P(Green)=424P(\text{Green}) = \frac{4}{24}
Simplify the fraction: 424=16\frac{4}{24} = \frac{1}{6}

3. Final Answer

16\frac{1}{6}
